thanks alot guys, yell i need to take it and get it done right. The thing through a rod last fall and i found aand old engine that had a good crank and block. I over haul the thing and being Ill never worked on boat motor I'll not for sure how to time it.I'll worked on car, tractor, bulldozer,motorcycle, but this thing is a differant animal. It sounds good but i was told if the timing to fast it could burn a piston.Don't need that with fishing season on us.
